Your device supports packet data connections, such as
GPRS in the GSM network. When you are using your
device in GSM and UMTS networks, it is possible to have
multiple data connections active at the same time;
access points can share a data connection, and data
connections remain active, for example, during voice
calls.
See "Connection manager," p. 100.
To define the packet data settings, select Packet data
connection and select When available to register the
device to the packet data network when you switch the
device on in a supported network, or When needed to
establish a packet data connection only when an
application or action requires it. Select Access point
and enter the access point name provided by your
service provider to use the device as a packet data
modem to your computer.
These settings affect all access points for packet data
connections.
